I am on the search for a Mazda Miata, I prefer the years 94-97 but if you throw me the right price I won’t pass it up. Im looking to spend about $3500 tops. You can email me if you have one at [ajsfitness247@yahoo.com](mailto:ajsfitness247@yahoo.com).

Thank You  
A.J.

I found a mint 95 triple black w/ 58k for my girlfriend’s mom for $3500. She is gunna sell it to me next summer.

$3500 can buy a really nice one, but for a little more I would recommend a car with the m-package, LSD, cruise, AC, and tan leather. Her car is bare bones but I will definitely be putting an LSD in it.

I have 9 miatas. One is ready to be sold, I believe its a 94, but I know it’s white with 23k on the clock. I have two M editions but I need new fenders on them and have to see what paperwork I have for them. theres about 3 others I know I have clean titles to and need body work/runs 100%, the others would be pretty deep projects. If you’re located in Rochester you’re welcomed to stop by and look.

LSD’s for them are cheeeeeap. spec/autox/etc guys prefer the open diff, the LSDs on the track get spicy hot and break all the damn time.

Good info about the LSD, I wanna open track it but I do love heaters. Tough call, do they oversteer easy with the open diff?

Ok I have seen a bunch but still nothing I am interested in so anyone else have any or no where else to look besides CL? I want the car to at least be below 105k because I want to turbo it no ls1 swap or rb26.

Why are you looking at 94-97 in particular? [Miata.net](http://Miata.net) has a ton of info and [empirestateroadsters.net](http://empirestateroadsters.net) is a local roadster group, mostly Miatas.

1.8 engine and better diffs too.

If you are gunna turbo it go 94-95 so it’s OBDI, and why does it need to be less than 105k? That is so arbitrary. I’d rather get a car with great comp/leakdown #'s and 200k than a car with shit #'s and 50k.
